    Supposedly Detroit is going to offer Ben Gordon a deal worth about 50 million today. They also want to get Charlie V. They have about 18.5 in salary, so I would assume that if they want those two then Hedo is not at the top of their list.

    Toronto is another team that has said to be interested, but it looks as if they are turning their attention to Kleiza.

    Memphis (the fuckers) are set to offer Lee a 50 million dollar deal. That would take them out of the running for Hedo as well.

    Like him or not, Hedo looks to be in Portland.

    Don't you mean Lee is going to sign for the NBA farm team for a couple years, then be given to a contender for 10 cents on the dollar?

    The other mystery here is that Detroit will have turned Billups into Gordon and C-Nuv. Doesn't really speak to Dumar's genius does it?

    If Detroit does that, can we start calling the Billups/AI trade one of the worst ever. It got the coach fired, alienated Detroits best remaining player, stunted the development of their point guard of the future and only resulted in them getting a one dimensional gunner and a powerless forward.

    Sad day for Detroit fans if you ask me.

    I heard Hedo is far down on Detroits list.
